Well, I certainly find it peaceful. Great place for a picnic and to read.

  Green is such a peaceful colour. At the moment we have very hot summer days and I leave the sprinklers running – infortunately we don’t have a lake

dit is asemrowend mooi
groen is vir my ‘n kleur van nuwe begin, dit is vir my die mooiste mooi as mens sien hoe die wereld om jou in groen verander na die winter….. tien sterretjies vir jou

  Ek dink altyd daaraan hoe mooi pas groen by plante – ek kan nog sonder blomme maar die sonder groen gras en bome nie – en hoe bedruk ek in die winter voel as alles begin vaal word.
  Baie dankie

    gelukkig woon ons nou ini kaap en dit word nooit vaal nie, ek is ‘n gebore vaalpens maar was ook op ‘n stadium ‘n blikpens (transvaal en vrystaat) en dit was vir my droewig om oor die kaal vlaktes te moes kyk, toe mannas vir my vertel vani kaap en dat dit nooit so lyk nie, het ek eers gedink hy praat nonsens, aangesien my horisonne des jare net tussen transvaal en die vrystaat was, maar toe kry ek die voorreg om dit self te beleef en aanskou, en ek woon nou al vir 20jaar hier ini mooiste kaap, en alhoewel ek steeds in murg en been ‘n bloubul is, is my hart nou pure kaap (tong ini kies-maar ek het steeds nie die kultuur om die droë wyne te wardeer nie) ma dit maki saki, da is genoeg soet wyne en ane lekka goed!!!!
    ek is mal oor blomme, maar net om dit te sien, gee my liewer iets immergroen, en ek is ‘n happy chappy

  Ek is mos ‘n Kaapse meisie en in my hart en siel het ek nog nooit ‘n Transvaler geword nie – behalwe dat die weer hier wonderlik is. Ek verlang nog steeds Kaap toe en om daar te gaan kuier, wat ons dikwels doen, is vir my net te wonderlik. En natuurlik die see, O die see!

Beautiful…!
I can see myself quietly lying under a tree gently and peacefully listening to the silence….

  That is it! Listening to the silence!
  Maybe some birds and the quiet rustling of the water.

    Part of the palace of Fontainbleu. Those were the days but they did end. And not such a happy ending for Marie Antoinette either.

  No this was Marie Antoinette’s domain – Fontainbleu about 30 km out of Paris.
  Peaceful

It does look very peaceful there, it must be good for the soul to drift around in one of those boats.
